Ah yes, like i was saying in the last entry at rainbow beach we were taught to throw the boomerang, im pretty sure that both gav and i nearly took out our entire group, shows that we have some skills though as the boomerang curled around just didn't exactly come back to us! rainbow beach was nice but i dont know who said there are 70 odd colours of sand because i could make out about 2 or 3!

Next stop Noosa! noosa is a bit of rich area of the east coast and you can see it when you see some of the houses on the rivers and estuaries! We had a fun few days here, we went for a walk along Noosa national park which takes you along a few beaches its a bit of a coastal walk! One of the beaches was a nudest beach and you know its fine if they are lying down because you can avoid looking at them but so many of the men are obviously very proud because they walk around hanging loose and its just hard to know where to look because theyre everywhere! no women just men! and they weren't all that well endowed either!!!! still bit of an adventure!the walk was cool we saw turtles and koalas, someone saw a snake but we missed it - we still have not seen a wild snake! the pic below is of doing the walk, this is tea tree bay, we stopped here for a dip in the sea! another day we went mountain biking and kayaking, the mountain biking didn't start too well as the other guy doing it with us fell off on the 3rd corner and fell off badly, i rode along and saw him face down in the bushes on the side of the road, lost tooth, big gash on head, arms and legs, shorts completely ripped! so quick dash to hospital! after that it was cool, cycled through mountains and forests and then went kayaking on the noosa river and saw some one clawed crabs and stingrays - fun day!

One of the nights we were there we went out, started in the hostel bar, they had loads of drinking games and stuff to win beer, i think our table won something like 4 pitchers for $8 not bad at all! i played some of the more kinky games, one you had to put a lemon up a guys trouser leg and back down the other leg, then back and forth a few times before pulling it out the fly, well the guy i was paired up had the tightest jeans on ever, needless to say i didn't win! had a top night, went down to a local nightclub, not good for gav though, guys not allowed to wear flipflops so we went in and he went back to change, came back, not allowed in again because wearing shorts - even though loads of others were getting in?! dont think the bouncer liked him! we had a good boogie inside, i dont think gav waited too long before we came out to look for him and then we kinda just went home! top night though!!


One of the other days we took a trip to Australia zoo! was really hard to realise that steve irwin is dead because he is everywhere in the zoo, pictures, his programs running all day so you can hear his voice, he really is everywhere you turn! the zoo itself was really cool, all the animals were well looked after and looked happy!! saw the most enormous tortoise i have ever seen! about 200 years old too! saw some cute tasmanian devils, saw a load of dingos, camels, cassowaries, kangaroos, koalas - lots that we'd seen before! And of course, crocodiles!! some of these were HUGE!!! we saw the famous agro, and he is one big boy! had like a crocodile, snake and bird show in the crocoseum (bit like a small auditorium) where they told you about the animals and stuff, did a bit of feeding show to show the different ways the crocodiles eat food, was really good but not like what you see steve doing on tv, these other people just aren't brave enough!! was good though! we also saw tigers and elephants, leopards, loads of birds, wombats, can't remember them all but it was a top day! the pics are of gav trying to wrestle a croc (thought it was quite a funny pic) and of Agro, he is one big croc!!
